twisting long extensions

And don't over heat the wire as the insulation is plastic and could
cause a short.
It's probably not a really great idea to twist them up anyways....

Unless you get the ground (black or brown) wire to wrap the other two at
least 5 times/inch then it will do you no good.  Clamp the wire ends in
a
vise and drill, heat with a heat gun, then twist and cool.  don't over
twist
or you'll overstress the wire.
